Okaaay, so i vowed to myself I wouldn't write about this in my blog but i'm a bit stuck for ideas. I bring to you the question that has been bugging me for ages. I ask everyone but I feel I will never know the answer. This question is... "If there was a switch to turn off the sun, and somebody flicked it, how long would we have before we all died?" I guess about 2 days... because we cold cope without light because of electricty. We couldn't cope without heat, but it would take quite a long time for the sun to cool down, so that would give us a while, but we would all know that we would be slowly freezing to death - which wouldn't be nice! The other point is that the sun's gravity might also switch off (i'm not quite sure about this yet). In which case we might go crashing into some other planet - which again wouldn't be the most enjoyable experiance. So my theory is that we should all start working to create a second sun, so that if this ever happens we will have a back-up sun! Although to get the sun into space we would need loads of string and the fire/flame man from the fantastic four. So you can sort out the string and i'll get working to find the fire/flame guy from the fantastic four. Deal?
I am assuming (and hoping) that this is a problem that we will never have to face. But if you we do, you will be wishing that you listened to Lena and maybe figured it out...
